Perfection

[Intro]

Hush little baby, gotta be strong

'Cause in this world we are born to fight

Be the best, prove them wrong

A winner's work is never done

Reach the top, number one

(Perfection) Oh, Perfection

You drive me crazy with perfection

I've worn my pride as my protection

(A winner's work is never done)

Perfection, oh

[Verse 1]

I was taught to be tough

That the best that you can be ain't enough

Crack the whip, sacrifice

But I found out paradise had a price

[Pre-Chorus]

I didn't know it then

But, oh, I know it now

You gotta work as hard at love

To make the love work out

You know this heart of mine

Has made some big mistakes

I guess that when it comes to love

I just don't know what it takes

[Chorus]

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Oh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

Nothing's perfect when love ain't right

[Verse 2]

Gave it all, played my part

I gave everything I had but my heart

Worked so hard, made a name

But the loneliness inside stayed the same

[Pre-Chorus]

When love is here today

And then it's gone today

You got a list of lovers lookin' like a resume

You gotta take some time

To make it something real

I guess that when it comes to love

I just don't know what to feel

[Chorus]

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Oh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

Nothing's perfect when love ain't right

[Bridge]

Oh, perfection

You drive me crazy with perfection

I've worn my pride as my protection

I'm goin' crazy with perfection

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I didn't know it then

But, oh, I know it now

You gotta work as hard at love

To make the love work out

You know this heart of mine

Has made some big mistakes

I guess that when it comes to love

I just don't know what it takes

[Chorus]

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Oh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Oh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

[Outro]

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Oh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night
